yeah i know what you probably did, you probably forgot to put the washer on that goes under the strut tower plate. that washer is the only thing that holds the strut rod under the strut plate. i did that once too but my hood was open when i lowered the car back down. yeah and when i did it once, my finger got caught between the lower fork and the cv boot, so basically the entire resistance force of that corner of the car was pinned on my finger, and the edge of the fork is sharp. my friend was sitting next to me as i did it, and i yelled out louder than i ever have...so he cant get my finger out and after about 30 of the longest seconds, i gave up, and i was just sitting there in pain, like what the fuck am i gonna do. finally i got it out.
